Many [[ethnicity and culture|ethnic and cultural groups]] recognize gender identities outside of the Western female/male [[gender binary]], which anthropologists call "third gender". Some of these represent binary transgender identities, or [[cisgender]] lesbian/gay or [[gender non-conforming]] identities, but some are also transgender non-binary gender identities. See [[gender-variant identities worldwide]] for a list, and more information about the problems involved in imposing outsiders' labels on these identities.

This wiki also has articles on some identities that are not gender identities, such as [[otherkin]], or are not on the MOGII spectrum, such as [[cisgender]].
